    BC satire?

    "Austin, Texas (AP) - A somber Mack Brown addressed the media today, apologizing for the Texas Longhorns’ embarrassing 66-17 loss to bitter rival Oklahoma next month."

    snip

    "Brown is no stranger to blowout losses against the Sooners. Oklahoma has beaten Texas by 38 points or more four times during Brown’s career, not including next month’s 49-point rout. When asked why the Longhorns will endure yet another lopsided defeat against a rebuilding Oklahoma team, Coach Brown threw up his hands."

    snip

    "And always classy in defeat, Coach Brown credited Oklahoma for their preparation and inspired play."


    66-17

    It's never too early for excuses.

    Fortunately OU is down so I don't think they have the horses to win by more than 40. It should be a lot closer to the usual beatdowns, not some new, historic annihilation.

    When he showed up at the office this morning, Mack was overheard mumbling. "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."

    To be effective, humor must have an element of truth to it.

    I joked that OU might play us tight this year, so we keep our coach.

    The year after they beat us by 49, we were walking into the State Fair when some Sooners started talking ****. I said "I was there last year: no way y'all were 7 touchdowns better than us. Maybe 6 TDs and a couple of FGs, but not 7 TDS!" They bought us beers.
